Chapter 3:

Misconduct In The Town And The Power Of Few

The Kingdom: Arcadia The Game [hiatus]


*timer strikes zero* *a buzzer flares* "and here we go! from here on out i will be commentating what is happening to random players throughout the world of Arcadia from here it looks like a bunch or ants running out an ant hill i hope all of you have a great time playing but as of right now i have to go but i will be back soon" 

the announcer said on the live stream but after he left is where things got hectic there were PKers everywhere stealing the starter loot of everyone joining the players just went wild in Arcadia they couldn't control themselves all the players that didn't want to die had to run for their lives because they caught the small end of the stick where they didn't spawn with good enough loot to survive the PKers but there were still players that had good luck with their loot that were helping those less fortunate but me i used my scythe to try and protect myself until one of the players that were helping those who needed to get away, he was an animal person but he was designed after an armadillo which its passive ability is that damage in minimized from the back. he was getting attacked by another man who was a human but specialized in heavy weaponry. the animal people have their draw backs in the case of the armadillo man his strength wasn't enough to stop the PKer and his health was dropping fast i had to do something to help him. 

i dashed over to him and used the scythes power on him to put him in the pocket dimension where he will be safe but now i was stranded because the ability has a cool-down but at least he is safe. now i had to deal with the heavy weaponry guy i took out the large sword and ended up knocking him back then i switched to the revolver and used the clone sword to clone the revolver i ended up duel wielding them to maximize DPS on this person i managed to drop his health about half but i ran out of ammo so i had to melee this man now. he gets up and swings his sword and the ground lifted like a wave headed straight at me. i dodge it just in time to not get hit with the full force of the attack. i revolve the cloning sword back to its original form and swing it at him, it doesn't do any damage but i get my ammo back and i copied the mans sword. i used his sword against him and i hit him dead on. he was hit with the max amount of damage the attack deals.

wait... i cant move now. this must be the draw back of the attack this sword has. this is bad now that i've attacked one of them with an ability they all start to look at me, the fighting stopped for a minute until someone else uses their ability and blows a hole in the PKers where more people could now escape. the  cool-down is now over for the scythe but if i go to the pocket dimension the people will wait for me to spawn into the world again to kill me. so i dash to the escape route but too many passives are injured. if i leave them they will die to the PKers. i dash to the players and use the scythes ability to create a portal to the dimension and basically throw the players into the world i close the portal and run the players that are still fighting back retreat behind me to try and get away this couldn't have been planed better once we get the distance the elves use magic and launch an artillery strike on the PKers which is now keeping them away and the attack took some of them out to where they were scattered which meant that the good players could pick them off one by one until they retreated and stopped attacking everyone. we took over the city again and made it a safe haven for the new players where if someone even damages another player that player gets interrogated to see if it was done intently or not. 

"wow look at that... the players are working together to stop the PKers and are successful i think this deserves a prize for the players that helped the ones who couldn't help themselves.. ok viewers what should we do to reward these heroes of the town.. how about an item for each of them, how about a permanent legendary item that cannot be traded how about that? sound good everyone? ok then lets call these fine people to the administrator world where we can speak to them"

i'm waiting for the cool-down to be over for the ability so i am  able to retrieve the players until there is an announcement from the streamer in game saying "can all players that aided in the protection of the town please some to the town center" i don't know what to do but to do as the admin says to see if he could help me with this cool-down. once i reach the center the players are all circled around then everyone starts to disappear one by one but with a notification saying they have been teleported so i wait but the cool-down doesn't go away until i am in the other area.

now that the admin has teleported everyone here. i use the ability to retrieve the players one by one but it turned out the players that had healing abilities healed themselves while in there and healed all the other players so there were very few injured when exiting the realm.

"well what do we have here... we have someone that used his ingenuity to help more players with more than just their strength.. i want to talk to you later but for now to thank all the heroes of this town i will give each of you legendary summon items but you are unable to trade these. also these items are permanent which means you can use them as many times as you would like and you will still have them even if you are killed in combat your opponent will not be able to retrieve it off your bodies... i will reset all players killed and injured anyone who was killed will no have their stuff back and all of you heroes and survivors you can keep all items that you earned in combat all items will be transferred to your own personal bank which no player can steal from so rest assured that your items that are stored in here will be safe no matter what happens." 

everyone in awe now returns to the main world besides me. "so would you like a personal interview or do you mind being live"

"umm i would prefer to be in a personal interview but i'm at school right now so i am unable to speak to you besides text"

"oh ok i see alright everyone i will be going for a bit but i will have a co worker take over the view points of the characters patrolling the world as i speak to this player.. i will be back, fret not" changes the scene to another point of view and continues to speak to me "so i have to ask why are you playing games during school."

"i'm playing them because i have completed all my work for the week and have nothing else to do, the way that i did this was that my teacher gave class work and i had completed it faster than she thought so when she came up to me wondering why i was playing games i told her that i had completed the work so she made a bet with me saying if i got an A on the test i wouldn't have to do the wrest of the work for the chapter."

"oh i see now, so what would you like to do now if there are any requests from you i don't mind completing them for you anything i can give you any item, even unlimited money if you would like?"

"well nothing really but in the process of me creating my character my game crashed and i was unable to do anything to make my character."

"ah ok now i see the problem, but since you are operating on a corrupted character i am unable to change any setting on you to allow you to recreate your character but however i am able to give you items to fix this problem you have just give me a second..." he leaves again just to come back a few minutes later "so i have made some items specifically made for you this item allows you to recreate your character at anytime since i am unable to give you a chance to change it so i created a way to allow you to do so. if you have any questions for me in the future just ask i have added you as a friend on the game but i'm sorry i have to get back to the stream to keep the people preoccupied. so just message me anytime and ill try and message you back as soon as i can. well i got to go talk to you later."

i am sent back to the town. i go to the bank and see what items i had received from the dead PKers. the folder is just stacked with items from top to bottom (dark revelry armor, twin assassin blades, normal daggers from the deprived classes and lots more.) i go to the character creation item i was given and use it it opens a menu that allows me to make my character from the races (fairy, elf, ork, demon, etc) but there is one that's named pick me i pick it and it looks just like a human but the race name is question marks but i am able to change more than any other character i can make a human with green skin to an elf with ears on his neck. i keep it simple a human like character with a demon tail and red dragon eyes. i click confirm but another prompt pops up saying what passive abilities would i like i chose keep previous abilities. 

i go back to the back and replace a few items such as the giant sword and the scythe i put those in the back and choose some rare items one was a legendary item known as scither it was a sword with life drain and poison as its abilities. i go through and pick out a few armor sets such as the deceitful mask which was plain white and had lines going from the nose to the top of the mask and the mask had an animation to it where particles of the mask look like they are being torn off but the mask keeps its look also the mask only goes down just past the nose [-like the mask from bleach-] i also pick out the hooded cloak it was black and had red string sown into it it looked perfect for my character. still looking for armor i come across an armor called the demon in red which also had an animation to it but it wasn't like the armor i had picked before, the neck doesn't turn into a hood but is like an over sized collar to a jacket the cloak had the same animation as the mask. i grab them and head to do quests issued by the NPCs of the town for levels 5 and so on but when i check my level i am level 34 which is way higher than anyone else around me besides the other heroes which i saw that were the highest at 26. 

from the stream "the tournament will be opening for sign up in 2 days don't be late. also about the tournaments each level of character signing up will be fighting other players at the same level and skill until we reach the top contestants then we will have class tournaments so those who are higher level don't overpower the lower levels also each category winner receives the same prize"

i stick to the cloak with the red stitching i will be using the revolvers and the twin assassin swords. so that people don't find out what i have up my sleeve for the tournament.
